It's been a crazy week behind the scenes around here, with lots in the works, but none to share yet. So I'm glad there is something fun to share, thanks to Fort Worth Fabric Studios. FWFS is an online-only fabric store out of Texas, owned and operated by Jodie Heinold. She has a fabulous selection of fabric collections from many of the major fabric manufacturers including Riley Blake, Moda, Michael Miller, Andover, and Robert Kaufman. I love how easy it is to see the available fabric collections on the FWFS site. Be sure to check out the sale sections too!

Jodie specializes in putting together wonderful bundles. If you like to mix prints from different fabric collections, but lack confidence in doing it yourself, I would highly recommend checking out Jodie's bundles. You can find them organized by color palette or theme. The above collection is called Tangerine and Turquoise.

One of Jodie's most popular bundles is theTa Dot Fat Quarter bundle, containing a FQ of each of the 37 prints in Michael Miller's Ta Dot collection. Or if you're looking for a few pieces, you can order yardage from any of the colorways in the Ta Dot collection.

Today Jodie would like to give one of you readers her latest fat quarter bundle, called Dock of the Bay. Doesn't it just make you feel relaxed looking at all those soothing blues? Love the combination. I need a little it of those calming vibes in my life at this moment. And it's a $40 value!

To enter take a trip to Fort Worth Fabric Studios and then leave a comment here telling me your favorite bundle or collection in stock.Giveaway open until Saturday, May 11, midnight MST. I'll randomly select a winner. Be sure there is a way for me to contact you if you win! GIVEAWAY CLOSED

I've just received an order from Fort Worth and they were quick and lovely. Even including a little gift which always feels nice. I had been looking at their bundles a lot but that tangerine and turquoise bundle was great. I think there will be a quilt in that sooner or later

I like Pencil Smudge, but it might be because I love stationery and grey! Dock of the Bay is lovely too though and reading this has ensured I will have Otis Reading in my head all day now. This can only be a good thing.

Why haven't I heard of them before. You are right, their bundles are ingenious and take much of the stress out of choosing what goes with what! My favorite is The Lemon Pepper Remix. How much do I love that name......so creative and the bundle is perfection!

Hahaha! I went to her shop and looked at all the thumbnails of bundles and the one that jumped out at me was.....tangerine and turquoise!!:) I have been been loving orange/teal/brown combos lately and I'm always ALL about grey so that bundle is perfection!:)

I love Fort Worth Fabric Studio and have already made several purchases from them. It's always fun to see what their special Friday Bundle Batches consist of - and I especially love that you can get these selections as fat quarter or 1/2 yard bundles (often a fat quarter just isn't enough for me). Right now, my favorite bundle that they are offering is "Beyond the Gate". Hoorah for Fort Worth Fabrics! - sunshdws at yahoo dot com

OMG. Dock of the Bay - so sad I didn't find this a few weeks ago (just starting a baby boy quilt - this would have been perfect). We're all baby-making age though, I'll have to scoop this if I don't win - there are more quilts in my future.

I'm also loving the Fruit Punch Sizzle bundle - such a great mix for little girls!

I completely love the Dock Of The Bay bundle. In a tight race for 2nd place are the Raspberry Mixer and the Bed Refreshment-Aqua Blue bundles. So in great news... I know where to send the family in search of Mother's Day ideas. :)

I like the navy and pink bundle -- cute! But I'd take this one too, in a heartbeat. Need some of that Heath. Can I suggest that their thumbnails are a little small for my preference? I'm not super old, but I would definitely be more inclined to shop where I can see things a little better without having to click on each item. The pictures are nice, they're just a little small on the main pages. Thanks!!

I love the Mini Tamed Ta Dot fat quarter bundle -- what a cute combination for baby quilts and more. The site was not as easy to follow as I expected, but when I used your links, I was able to get to the bundles. Then I realized I could search for bundles -- but that option was not available in the drop down. It might be more interactive if the drop down had a listing for the bundle collections. She has a wonderful eye for color combinations. Thanks for the recommendation.
